Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] chapter.titlepage.recto.style: some attributes not working?


Hi Cheri,
Add this to your attribute-set:
 
<xsl:attribute name="space-before.conditionality">retain<xsl:attribute>
 
By default in XSL-FO processing, a space-before property is ignored when an element's output block is first on a page.  That is so when a para starts on a new page, it doesn't space down unnecessarily before the para, ruining the alignment with the top margin.  So you have to tell it to retain the space-before regardless of the circumstances by using this attribute.
 
The old FOP didn't properly support "ignore-at-top" feature, but the new FOP does.

Subject: [docbook-apps] chapter.titlepage.recto.style: some attributes not working?

I’m upgrading from FOP 0.20.5 to FOP 0.95 beta (and to the 1.74 DB stylesheets), and I’ve noticed that with the upgrade, the “space-before” attributes in my  chapter.titlepage.recto.style attribute-set override no longer do anything. The “space-after” ones still seem to be turned on and work fine. Below is the little chunk from my customization layer. Any idea why part of this attribute-set would no longer work?

 

<xsl:attribute-set name="chapter.titlepage.recto.style">

 

    <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.7em</xsl:attribute>

    <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">4em</xsl:attribute>

    <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">5em</xsl:attribute>

    <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">1.2em</xsl:attribute>

    <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">2em</xsl:attribute>

    <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">3em</xsl:attribute>

  </xsl:attribute-set>

 

 

Much thanks!

cheri
